The thing about there needing to be a path of redemption for people who have been “canceled” is: there already is a path to redemption and it’s called “redeeming yourself.” The path is open! No one is blocking that! You just have to do it!

Didn’t believe it until I looked for myself (on HBO Max).

Just immensely weird to go to the Disney+ homepage and see a banner promoting, among other titles, Shrek.

Yeah, that’ll show him.

Funny to think of how annoyed Michael Kay gets when people say the Mets’ broadcast booth is better than the Yankees’ booth.

Ocean

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

My avatar means I am obligated to share this post.

Yes, but this one time, Obama wore a tan suit.

Today I learned I can read German

That’s one way to do it.

It’s a beautiful day for a baseball game.

Good luck to the Artemis II crew.

Sir, a second bird is at the feeder

Much $tronger, yes.

Betteridge’s law of headlines strikes again!

At Episodic Medium, I reviewed an extremely funny installment of Elsbeth with a sly J. Smith-Cameron and a piece-moving installment of Matlock: www.episodicmedium.tv/review-elsbe...

Just sitting on a Friday night, watching baseball on Apple TV, and shouting “Oh my God!” when I recognize Millie from Freaks and Geeks in an insurance ad.

This is such a brilliant idea.

Does Bluesky have an engagement problem, or do fewer people just react to the nonsense you post here?

The natural endgame of the NYT being so fervently in favor of making every issue one with two equal sides is that words end up having no meaning. Whee!

guess Netflix feels Louis C.K. has been canceled long enough

Back in the news!

This is extremely recent but it’s up there.

The best film critic working today (my daughter) and I discuss Super Mario Galaxy. Topics include: -The worst voice actor in the cast -Whether Birdo is a Yoshi (and vice versa) -Why watching someone play a video game is no different than watching baseball Easily my fav of these pieces to date.

ahhhh looks like the old Pretend To Be A Famous 193-Year-Old Tortoise's Veterinarian And Say He Died And Then Solicit Crypto Donations Through Social Media scam i've seen it a million times

I apologize for bringing the mood down, but this sucks!

Amazing news. Well-deserved congratulations to @mcastimovies.bsky.social!

I have multiple friends who are great writers, who are also struggling to find any outlet that pays. They do the work. They don't lie and cheat. I think Alex Preston should be run out of the business. Who cares if he's sorry? The sympathy he's getting in some quarters is driving me up the wall.

You may not like it, but this is what peak male performance looks like.

I got banned from twitter in 2023 for this drawing. They called it "violent speech". It had over 40K likes and too many comments for me to read before my ban, but I still see it floating around here and there. Save a copy, and use it freely. No attribution needed. Love u #transdayofvisibility #tdov

Reminder that executive orders are not law and this is essentially just an old man yelling at a cloud.

Have yet to see the sequel (and my fellow Josh is right), but to me, it's just a big ol' bummer that the guys who made the Teen Titans Go! movie then went onto make an immensely dull, lifeless IP adaptation. They showed they could get delightfully weird! Alas.

Sir, this is an Arby’s.

Leaving aside the fact that 10 episodes for what sure seems like the story from the film, it would have been actually daring to cast Bardem as the other male lead, not as Max Cady.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility ❤️🏳️‍⚧️❤️

Justin Verlander is looking…uh..like a 43-year old playing baseball tonight, that’s for sure.

Do you want to break a snowman?

Did I say presidential library? I meant PRESIDERFPIAL EIRRAABG

There are a scant handful of people in the world who get paid for professional arts criticism anymore. It's a rare privilege for a lucky few, and to outsource that privilege to the plagiarism machine is a sin.

This is…uh…not great!
